About this listen
At 29, Claire is full of the joys of life - that is, until her husband leaves her on the day she gives birth to her baby. With a broken heart, a beautiful newly born and an expanding mirror image, she decides to visit her eccentric family in Dublin. There she starts to feel better. So much better, in fact, that James is in for a surprise when he decides to slither back into her life.

Great escape from life
As ever Marian had one crying or laughing, or even crying with laughter, while you are so easily drawn i to the life of each character, who were all given even more personality by the perfect match of Gerri’s voice of narration.

Meh...
While I enjoyed the way this book was written as a train of thought, I wanted to throttle the main character by the end.
Overcoming self doubt was a key theme and she made better choices in the outcome, but her excessive meekness throughout was quite painful. Such as being only mildly annoyed while being casually sexually assaulted on a train.
Well read though

Brilliant
I love Marian Keyes work. Funny, romantic, sweet, witty and easy to lose yourself into.

Not the best in the series
Watermelon was ok. I always love Keyes books but this one just didn't grab me like the others in the series. I still don't even understand the title! Still worth a listen if you want something easy and familiar

Love Marian but not her best work
Narrator was fine but not as witty as the book required so much of the humour was lost for me. Story a bit blah.

Good narrator, average story
Found the story boring at times. The parenthood line didn’t get enough focus I think, rather than the main character’s meltdown moments. The only thing that had me finish the story was the narrator.

Realistic & Hilarious
It was like listening to my own story which had me yelling in frustration at the cheating husband in between laughing out loud. Perfect narrator too!

Loved it!
My favourite book for a long time.
Actually helped me process some stuff in my own life.
Absolutely loved it. M K seems to give such insight to complex emotions.
